The law was both a blessing and a curse. The blessing is it lets us know the attributes of our creator, and how the creator expects us to live our lives. The curse is that we are unable to keep those laws, which is a frustration to all of us.
Throughout history we have tried, and never come close to keeping the whole law even once, and when we tried to hardest that realization often led us to abandon it completely. This led to the creator's punishment of our peoples, which resulted in two responses. The first and most often was continuing in sin. The second was repentance and a renewed attempt to keep the law.
As a nation we never quite grasp the purposes of the law, and there were multiple purposes. The first one was for us to live in peace and harmony with both our creator and our neighbor, even those who are not our people. The second is for us to realize the futility of our best attempts to keep the law, which is impossible. And the third to let us identify the Messiah.
Preparing your heart to study Torah is the most important thing one can do in their life. Without proper preparation one cannot understand the Torah. The giving of the law and prophets is our greatest treasure, but most do not comprehend it. Now that our peoples are in exile the creator has blinded us to the understanding of the Torah, but that is a national curse, which will end soon.
This curse doesn't apply to individuals. An individual who prepares their heart can understand the Torah, and receive it's greatest treasures. One of which is complete and total reconciliation with the creator. With that comes the recognition of the Messiah.
When judgment was given in the garden of Eden on Eve, the prophecy that the serpent would bruise the heel of the Messiah, but the Messiah would bruise the head of the serpent. The Messiah being the seed of the woman. This is just the beginning of an enormous amount of prophecies and imagery in the Torah which leads us to know who the Messiah is.
I can relate much more, which would include the study of Abraham's sacrifice of his son, which is a picture of the creator’s plan for the salvation of the entire world.
Our sacrifice once a year to place the sins of Israel on the head of a goat was just that, temporary, but the creator had a plan to make one sacrifice to cover the sins of the entire world that would last forever. To accomplish this He prepared a body, a human body for a human sacrifice to pay for the sins of the world forever, and reconcile all His creation back to Himself.
For this to work He'd have to send a man that had no sin, was perfect in keeping the law, and since no mortal man had the capacity to do this He sent an imortal person from the place in the heavens where the creator resides. The person He sent was interrogated by the Sanhedrin and no sin was found in Him.
He was sent to Jerusalem on the day the Torah revealed He'd come in to Jerusalem, and even His mode of transportation, riding on a colt, the foal of a donkey. And yet nearly everyone missed this, because of the sin in their hearts. Those whose hearts were right with the creator expected the Messiah, and welcomed Him as the Messiah, but Israel, including the Sanhedrin, and the leaders rejected Him as their Messiah, and put Him to death.
They put Him to death using the Roman method of crucifixion, torture the person to near death, but keep them alive as long as you can to have the onlookers kept in fear that it should happen to them. Near the end they nailed their hands and feet to a cross and hung the person high above the crowd so all could see.
This is the payment the creator made to save the entire world from their sins, yet few understand. After the crucifixion many Jews did recognize the significance of this sacrifice and spread the word to the entire world, yet the nation of Israel as a whole still rejected the truth, lied spreading disinformation that persist to this day. The gentiles were given the meaning of this sacrifice and embraced it for what it is, yet today sin has turned their hearts from the creator, and their numbers are as Israel, just a reminent.
If you have been understanding the writings on this page then you know the Messiah is Yeshua, Jesus, and His Father Elohim.
Look to Him with a heart seeking the truth and Elohim Himself will reveal to you the truth of the Torah. He will reveal to you that Yeshua is the Son of Elohim, and that He is coming back soon to set up His kingdom.
May the Lord of all Lord's open your heart to a personal reconciliation with Him.
